The stock market has experienced wild swings this year amid soaring inflation, the Fed’s aggressive rate hikes, and rising odds of a recession. JPMorgan Chief, Jamie Dimon, has repeatedly highlighted the chances of the U.S. economy heading toward a recession.
He pegged the chances of a “soft landing” to be as low as 5% to 10% and expects unemployment to rise 7% nationally, compared to 3.7% now. Amid such macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainties, the stock market has seen a broad sell-off this year.
